Wooster 25 of 4 Mo 1819
Dear Friend
I have a request of make
of thee that is to send me a copy of
Woodville's description of the Digitalis
the botanical description together with
the synonims. Dr. McPhair has statd that
there are "two species of fox glove, the one
purpuria and the other orientale - the one in
the class Didynamia order angio-permia
calycidis folialis oriatis acutis carolus olitusis colia
inferiare integro. the other orientalis order
musci pericoprpus monophermis recimascs couli
diffuse" I wish to compare this with
Woodville and enquire whether two species
of the same genus of plants can belong
